Welcome to the Venue at Cottonwood Farm located in Chatsworth, Georgia.

Our beautiful venue is surrounded by 65 acres of wooded green forestry, a 3-acre lake with rolling hills, and a pasture. The white-washed venue is perfectly nestled between two mountains, with a custom-landscaped courtyard, side patio with bistro lights, and breathtaking views of the lake and mountains.
